writing off fixed assets

Hi I need to write off some fixed assets. I think the journal will be:

 

dr accumulated depreciation - computer equipment £6319

cr original cost - computer equipment £7123

dr loss on disposal - computer equipment £804

 

Is that correct?

 

I'm ok with the first 2 lines of the journal but don't know how to create the account for "loss on disposal"

Can anyone help with this please?

Hi kline, thanks for your post - this falls outside the scope of what we're able to support with on the Community, and we'd recommend reaching out to your bookkeeper/accountant for advise on this. If you don't already have any accountant, you can find a QuickBooks certified advisor here.  Alternately, we welcome responses from any professionals below who're able to offer their own input. :)

Hi Georgia,

 

Thank you. I just needed help with creating the account in Quickbooks. I wasnt sure which type of account to choose. I've gone for other expenses
